In the coming months, the organization will search for a new executive director. Another member of the board, Larry Ritsema, has been appointed to oversee management as the interim executive director.

“We are excited Larry has agreed to serve in this interim role,” Ten Cate said. “During and upon the conclusion of this transition period, Love in Action is and will remain committed to helping our neighbors in the Tri-Cities community through more than 25 different ministries of support.”
